This resolves the issue where ffmpeg and x264 would end up depending on each other's libraries. There should be no issues for any ports that need libx264 to pull in the new libx264 port as a dependency. I am trying to get a message in UPDATING, but the wheels turn slowly for those without commit bits. This is the proposed message: x264 was split into the application and its library. If an application that uses libx264 is updated before x264 itself, multimedia/libx264 will conflict with the old x264 package. Delete the existing x264: # pkg delete x264 And then install the updated x264 and/or upgrade the other applications that depend on libx264.
